So the ROG Swift monitor i bought doesn't have an HDMI ouput, only a Displayport 1.2. I'm wondering if i buy a Displayport to HDMI cable adapter if i'd run into any issues as far as picture quality, etc. Any input appreciated before i pull the plug and buy one of these cables. Thanks! -Jeff...

Good point. i'll take it down. Thanks.

What's up guys/gals. Selling my Asus ROG Swift gaming monitor. In mint condition, ZERO dead pixels, amazing picture once I fully calibrated it. Bought it for $800 about a month ago. The cheapest I've seen it now is $738 from B&H Photo and Video. I want 525 shipped for it. 500 if you're local and...

Ahh sorry forgot about that rule. Forget the paypal charges then.

EDIT: Price drop - $525 plus shipping to the lower 48 Selling my Asus ROG Swift monitor. I'm sure most of you already know what this monitor is so i'll just provide a link for those that don't: https://www.asus.com/us/Monitors/ROG_SWIFT_PG278Q/ Bought about a month ago. Mint conditon, zero...

Looking to sell my Dell Inspiron M731R-5545 17.3" laptop. It has bronze finish. Bought a few months ago. Mint condition. Looking for a quick sale at 350 firm. The only catch is i lost the original charger for it so i'm using a different one which doesn't charge as quickly. However i've seen...

Thanks for all of your help guys. From what you're all saying it doesn't seem like upgrading wouldn't make enough difference to justify buying an external sound card. Especially with the fact that i'm already using a DAC. I'll do some more research. I guess i'll just swap the op-amps on my...

I have an evga gtx 980 acx 2.0 but not a waterblock. EVGA does make a waterblock for it. Not sure if other companies do.

Whats up guys/gals. Looking to trade my other evga gtx 980 acx 2.0 sc for a 1tb ssd (or something similar in drive space. Looking for a newer model ssd and it would depend on the brand/model. If interested reply to this ad or call 215-378-9749. Thanks for your time! -Jeff

So needless to say i'm pretty content with the Maximus IV Hero 1150 motherboard i'm running along with the other toys that are hooked up to it. I looked up the specs and it comes with a Realtek ALC1150 8-channel onboard sound card. Now i have no idea if this is considered a good onboard sound...

Thanks for all that responded. I was able to sell the video card locally and get my bills paid. I will however be selling the other gtx 980 (still have an older HD 7970 i can use in the meantime) but it won't be for a ridiculous price of 300...i'll post up another ad for the other one soon...

Just find a ride Jakupb12! You'd be saving yourself a lot of money even if you paid someone for a ride. I did try Craigslist mrrogers, nothing but scammers responded.

Bump. Again this card would need to be picked up on Philly where you would obviously then make sure it works. It's still hooked up to my computer right now.

Sorry guys i need a local buyer with cash so i can pay off this bill today. However if it ends up not working out i'll definitely let you know. Bump.

What's up Hardforumers, Audioquest Dragonfly Headphone Amp/DAC. I bought two (one for each computer) and only used this one a few times. All the reviews were right...this thing sounds AMAZING with a decent set of cans. $95 shipped 1TB Seagate Backup Plus external hard drive. Brand new but i...

Mods i apologize if this is in the wrong section and it needs to be moved. So i've posted up an ad on Craigslist and am basically getting ridiciulous offers of 300-400 bucks. Hell maybe that's how much it's worth. Here are the specs: Case: NZXT Switch 810 (White) - Comes with 4 extra 3-speed...

Thank you for the response. I'm going to start with the motherboard as i'm suspecting that could be the issue but i guess it'll just be a process of elimination. Thanks again.

What's up guys/gals! I've been having issues with my PC which is why i haven't played it in a while which is pissing me off quite frankly lol. Certain games that worked perfectly fine before all of a sudden are either running slowly now (i.e. Far Cry 3) or i'm getting BSOD's (Hitman Absolution)...

Oh gotcha sorry. Mods delete this thread.

So my roommate lost his job. I need money for rent. Considering selling my secondary computer. I'll cut to the chase. Just tryin to get a feeler before i put it up for sale. Case - Antec Three Hundred Ilusion (Replaced two front fans and top fan w/ Noctua's) CPU - i7 2600k @ 4.6ghz (Good...

I agree with WinSome on using Intel Burn Test. It's the only benchmark i use for CPU's. 3dMark11 for GPU's. I never understood why people have to run Prime95 for like 24 hours to see if their computer is stable. The computer will never be under that much load for that amount of time BUT i guess...

I would stick with Asus motherboards. Never had a problem with any of them. Everyone is going to give you their personal opinions on which board you should buy but I prefer Asus. I have a Maximus VI Hero and like it a lot. The chip itself (4770k) unfortunately is crap (I was in the 30% that...

I say it's too early to upgrade your system yet. I know you've got the itch like we all get for new gear but stick with what you have for now. Like the 2500k. Definitely don't go Haswell it's a waste of money. I made the mistake of switching from a 2600k setup to a 4770k setup and noticed a very...

Reading a lot of these replies are funny. Keep in mind guys I'm solely a PC gamer. Remember, my ROOMATE bid and paid over 500 dollars for this gaming system. He's not much of a gamer. BUT he does play Madden every year. I told him that's a ridiculously steep price to pay to have updated rosters...

You didn't post up a price. Btw, get those 650's properly amped and you'll be blown away from the 595's...

This thread has made me finally realize i need to de-lid my 4770k. Now if i de-lid this CPU, will i be able to get higher than 4.3ghz? I remember hearing something about a certain percentage of these chips not being able to go over a certain mark. I'm not sure if that's due to heat issues (which...

So jealous...i'm about to spend another 25 bucks and burn my chip out since it can't get over 4.3ghz no matter what i do...on a Kraken X60.

So my roommate made a final bid for 530 dollars on Ebay to get this thing. I guess i wasn't that impressed coming from a guy who's rig is probably 3 times as powerful as this thing. First...you have to pay for multiplayer now? It says i have to join Playstation Plus or some bullshit like that to...

Well as an audiophile i'd rate the sound a 4/10 and the build quality a 8/10. If just comparing them to other PC gaming headphones (Say Steelseries or Corsair for example) i'd give the sound a 6.5/10 and the build quality still a 8/10. Just my opinion. There are better options out there. For the...

Yeah i figured Origin would give me problems and Steam wouldn't. Really the only game i want to play is Mass Effect 3 and that's only because i bought it brand new for 60 bucks and then for some reason never played it. I must've been playing something else. All the other games i could live...

Haswell can suck it. I'd buy it for 100 bucks maybe. Stick with Sandy Bridge or go with Ivy Bridge.

I'm planning on wiping my old WD Black HDD that has a LOT of games on it. Games on Steam, Origin (which i hate), GOG, UPlay, etc. etc. I'm just wondering if there's any tips before i do this. I've had problems with Origin before specifically with only being able to use a game key once. Now...

AI Suite III is garbage and the ROG Audio is just a gimmick in my opinion. Get a halfway decent DAC/Headphone amp (hell a Fiio E7 blows it away imo) and you'll be glad you did.

2 years from now, 4k HDTV's will probably be still expensive but within my price range. Although i'm using a 1440p monitor right now to game i'll always prefer a big HDTV. I know i'm i the minority here.

I'm running an AX850 with an oc'ed 4770k, Kraken X60, 10 fans, Kaze Q12, and two HD 7970's. I believe that the PSU is what is holding me back from overclocking my video cards further. I may be wrong however. Btw, don't get an AX850 if you were looking at one. I had to RMA two of them. Like the...

Ugh wish i could jump on this but GMG only let's you go through Origin which i absolutely hate.

Bump. Worst you can do is make an offer!

Unfortunately i just missed the 15 day return period from Microcenter hence why i'm selling (Plus i have 2 motherboards i don't need) I actually liked this motherboard better than the Maximus VI Hero i bought in replace of it but i don't feel like taking everything apart again. Way more bios...
